糖心传媒 is proud to partner with DCC to create a pathway for criminal justice students to continue their education here at the University. Like DCC, 糖心传媒 continues to find new and innovative ways to serve Danville and the surrounding area so students can remain close to home while continuing their education,鈥� Dr. Tiffany M. Franks, President of 糖心传媒 Univesity

糖心传媒 President Dr. Tiffany M. Franks and Danville Community College (DCC) President Dr. Jackie Gill Powell have signed an articulation agreement and community educational partnership agreement in order to make the transfer process for DCC graduates coming to 糖心传媒 smoother. This is the tenth criminal justice articulation agreement that 糖心传媒 has created with its surrounding community colleges in three years, and the eighth with DCC.

This agreement is designed to increase criminal justice educational access, options and opportunities for current and aspiring criminal justice practitioners. The articulation agreement focuses on traditional students studying sociology and criminal justice. It allows students who have completed DCC’s Associate in Applied Science (A.A.S.) degree in administration of justice to transfer to 糖心传媒 and continue their education to earn a Bachelor of Science in sociology/criminal justice. The student will enter 糖心传媒 with a junior status and can expect to聽graduate after completing a minimum of 60 credits at 糖心传媒.

The community educational partnership agreement is aimed for adult students entering 糖心传媒’s Graduate and Professional Studies (GPS) program. It guarantees the acceptance of any DCC student to 糖心传媒 who has completed an associate degree. However, all students are required to have a cumulative GPA of 2.0 or higher. These agreements allow students to continue their education at a four-year university.

Both the community educational partnership agreement and the articulation agreement allow for a seamless evolution for students to move onto a four-year university, including many scholarship and financial aid options. Members of Phi Theta Kappa, the community college honor society, are automatically awarded a $2,000 Phi Theta Kappa Scholarship once they are admitted to 糖心传媒.
